Influence of natural feeding supplements on the growth and health in calves
Original language description
The aim of this study was to prove the hypotheses that the growth and health in calves are dependent on feed supplements with antidiarrhoeic effect. Total 60 calves were included in the experiment. After birth the calves were divided into three treatment groups: Ascophyllum nodosum (brown seaweed hydrolyzate, prebiotics), Lactobacillus sporogenes (probiotics), and control group. All calves were weighed within two hours after birth. The growth and health were investigated from the birth to the fourth week of age. Compared to the control, the significant influence of applied feed supplements was found in the Lactobacillus sporogenes group in body weight at 28th day of life (P<0.01) and average daily gains (P<0.001). We concluded from the analysis, that the use of Lactobacillus sporogenes had a positive influence on the growth increasing only. Neither of the two supplements had a positive impact on the health of calves.
